IP camera

Add one IP camera, point it at the drain outlet, and Sensa shows it live on the Cab dashboard while you dump grey water from the driving seat.

IP camera, one per system, for the dump camera

Included in Pro and Vision. One camera per system.

Sensa Connection Method​

Network: Ethernet, PoE or Wi-Fi, depending on the camera.

Installation​

Mount the camera where you want to see, and connect it to your van's network by cable or Wi-Fi.

Configuration​

Any IP camera that streams video over your van's network will do. Sensa finds it by checking which devices on your network answer as a camera.

Adding to Sensa Nomad​

Connect the camera to your van's network. Then open Settings, choose the Devices tab, tick it under Discovered (it is tagged CAMERA) and press Add Selected Devices. If it is not there yet, press Scan.

The camera needs three things it cannot tell Sensa itself. Tap the cog at the end of its row and fill in:

  • Stream Path, the last part of the camera's video address, from its manual or its own web page. It starts as stream1.
  • Username and Password, if the camera asks for a login.

Then press Apply Camera. The picture appears within a minute or so.

See Adding devices for more.

What you see​

The Cab dashboard gains a Dump tab showing the camera full screen and live. If a relay channel is set up as the dump valve, a Dump Valve button sits on the picture. See Dump camera.

Good to know​

  • It is a live view, not CCTV. Nothing is recorded, and the picture runs a few seconds behind.
  • A second camera is greyed out in the Devices list with Only one camera supported. Remove the first before adding another.
